Dodgers Eye $106M Duo Buxton & Ryan in Blockbuster Trade

The Dodgers are looking to acquire Byron Buxton and Joe Ryan in a $106M trade to bolster their rotation and outfield as they aim for the 2026 World Series.

Blake Snell is expected to miss the Dodgers’ Opening Day start, prompting the club to seek a reliable bullpen. In response, the Dodgers are eyeing a blockbuster deal with the Minnesota Twins for outfielder Byron Buxton and pitcher Joe Ryan, a $106 million package that could upgrade both the rotation and the outfield.

Buxton has expressed frustration with the Twins’ handling of trade rumors, and a move to Los Angeles would give the Dodgers a significant advantage heading into the 2026 season, while also providing the Twins with a fresh start under new management.
